I am so sorry for your loss. There are some details here that need to be included such as was there a Will? Was the estate probated? Are there other wiblings here or a spouse? Generally speaking the property of a deceased person must pass through Probate in order for the Personal Representative to eecute an Executor's Deed. I would go and speak with a Probate attorney on how to proceed here. Good luck.
